Tampa Bay Rays vs Kansas City Royals Prediction: City Royals to take advantage of the Rays again

The Tropicana Field will be the venue for this MLB action between the Tampa Bay Rays and Kansas City Royals. The Royals have been disappointing, while the City Royals have come in as favorites. I will take a look at this game from a betting perspective and make a prediction. 

Tampa Bay Rays losses extended to five, and they will now look to redeem themselves here; in that run of games, this team lost their opener to the Kansas City Royals while also being swept by the Boston Red Sox. In the meantime, this side did defeat the Boston Red Sox in their prior series meeting, picking two wins. In the meantime, the Tampa Bay Rays have a 25-27 record this season, positioning them 8th in the American League standings.

The Kansas City Royals are on a run of victories, and this team has had one of their best performances this week. Heading into this game, the Kansas City Royals have a seven-win run. In those matches, the Kansas City Royals scored 53 runs while conceding 19. In the run of games, the Kansas City Royals swept the Oakland Athletics and the Detroit Tigers, and they now have a win in game one of this. The Kansas City Royals have moved to the 3rd spot of the American League standings, pulling off a 33-19 record. 

The City Royals can not be bet against at the moment. This side is pulling 8 runs in the majority of their recent matches, and with that level of play, we can expect more from them. The Tampa Bay Rays need to do better, and looking at how poor the Tampa Bay Rays have struggled recently, I do not see them pulling off anything serious.
